I can't reach a locally hosted domain, and in testing I have discovered I can't ping localhost or the actual IP either. OS is Windows7 64bit, Pro.

DNS works, I can ping others on my network, they can ping me, and they can reach the hosted domain. The ONLY problem I have found is that I can't reach the locally hosted domains!

I can reach a hosted VM in VirtualBox and the VM can browse the hosted sites.

I've removed Zone Alarm and disabled Windows Firewall - same results.

So how can I browse my locally hosted sited? What could be blocking it?

Thanks Ian
